A broken Hogwarts

Chapter 17 Weird Potter

After saying his short opening remarks, in the silence, Snape suddenly shouted: "Potter!"

“What will I get if I add narcissus root powder to an absinthium infusion?”

Harry stood up and thought for a moment, then said with some uncertainty: "...it can be formulated into a very powerful sleeping potion, a dose of...uh, water of life and death."

Because of Owen's reminder, he had flipped through the potions textbook a lot these days and remembered that this issue was mentioned on a page at the back of the page, but this was definitely not what they needed to preview at this stage!

At this time, Owen, who was huddled far away in the corner of the Potions class, was watching the show with great interest. He secretly used a magic spell to light a fire under the cauldron in front of him. He leaned next to it and let the warm flames dispel the coldness around him.

Then he started to think wildly.

It is said that Professor Snape's question has a profound meaning. According to the Victorian flower language, the "narcissus" he mentioned is a lily that looks like a narcissus, and its flower language is "My regret follows you to the grave."

.And wormwood means "absence" and "bitter sorrow." The actual meaning of this sentence is: I feel great regret for your mother's death.

The above inner monologue that makes the listener cry and make the listener sad... is actually all made up. Owen can only say that this is definitely a beautiful misunderstanding.

Look at the malicious look in Professor Snape's eyes when he looked at Harry Potter. Owen was sure that his intention was purely to make things difficult. Although Snape was determined to protect Harry, he never concealed it.

Regarding his disgust, instead of secretly expressing his inner regret to the face in front of him that was very similar to James, he might as well let him talk to his crucible.

Besides, if Professor Snape really had such romantic emotional intelligence, Harry should be named Snape now!

"Of course, since he is a very powerful Occlumency master, it is not impossible..." Owen stretched out his hands to warm himself in front of the fire, and saw the malice in Professor Snape's eyes dissipate after hearing Harry's answer.

A little bit.

Snape's expression was still unpredictable, and without giving Harry a chance to breathe, Snape directly asked the next question: "If I asked you to find a bezoar, where would you look for it?"

For the first time, Snape's always gloomy expression became a little strange. As a teacher who could always understand the minds of his students, he couldn't figure out what Potter understood. Also, when had he been disappointed?

"It is mainly used to thicken potions. It is used when preparing herbicides, sleeping potions, replication agents and other magic potions."

This is the content of "Thousands of Miraculous Herbs and Mushrooms". His study time is limited, and he has to take into account the previews and after-school homework of so many subjects. It is impossible to write down this book in a short time.

Owen coughed lightly and stood up helplessly, facing Hermione's resentful gaze.

"A very powerful antidote can restore people who have been deformed or petrified to their original form, but its cries are fatally dangerous." Owen replied.

After saying that, he ignored Hermione's still raised arms, and looked coldly at Owen, who was sitting in the corner warming himself by the fire, and the suppressed smile on his face.

Snape let go of the eccentric Potter, but his expression became even more gloomy. He asked in a louder voice: "So, who can tell me the answers to these two questions?"

"Then tell me, what is the difference between Aconitum scaphoides and Aconitum wolfsbane?" Snape continued to ask indifferently.

"But that's it, Potter." Snape said in a cold and smooth voice, "It seems that fame does not mean everything. It's time for you to know your own weight. Sit back, don't think that you are in my college, I

You will be treated specially."

I heard that the two of them were classmates in the same year. Mr. Shafiq was almost dragged into their circle of Death Eaters by friends like Snape. In the end, Owen's grandfather took him home and almost broke his leg... This is Owen

I accidentally heard my parents say it when they were joking.

Hermione raised her arms high, Harry was stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't know, Professor."

Harry sat back, raised his emerald-green eyes, and looked at Snape's sallow face with some suspicion, looking at the indifferent expression that seemed to hide disgust. Isn't this really a deliberate attempt to make things difficult? After all, Draco really doesn't

How reliable.

It's "A Thousand Magic Herbs and Mushrooms" again! Harry exhaled and whispered: "Sorry, Professor, I haven't previewed it yet."

"So, is there only one other possibility?" Harry took a deep breath, "So the dean actually has such heavy expectations for me? He must be very disappointed in me now."

Although Harry knew that he was not a genius at all, and he preferred others to treat him as an ordinary person, he did not have the habit of disappointing people again and again in the face of the high expectations placed on him by others.

Snape walked around the classroom silently, like a dark ghost, and almost all students suffered from his merciless criticism.

To be honest, Owen is not that worried about Professor Snape. His father has always maintained a good relationship with Professor Snape. Many of the best potions in the potion shop run by the Shafiq family are from

Snape's hands, and Mr. Shafiq can always find him some extremely rare potion materials.

But then he remembered that Owen had said the same thing, telling him "You can completely trust Professor Snape." Harry didn't think Owen was joking... although he often couldn't tell how much of Owen's words were true.

Out of some bad taste.

"Name the main uses for Flobber caterpillar slime."

Staring into the other party's emerald green eyes that were full of determination and sincerity, as well as some kind of guilt hidden in them, he looked dazed for a moment, and the sarcastic joke he wanted to blurt out was unable to come out in his throat.

I felt extremely uncomfortable holding it in.

"Shafiq, it seems that these questions are not difficult for you." Snape was inexplicably unhappy and called Owen's name.

Owen was suppressing laughter from a distance. He always felt that Harry was thinking of something extraordinary, so that the play had a sense of déjà vu from beginning to end.

Professor Snape nodded slightly again, waved Owen to sit down, and of course did not forget to give Slytherin points.

Listening to Owen's answer, Snape nodded his chin subtly and continued to ask: "Tell me, what is the function of mandrake?"

Well, that's pretty weird.

He spoke at a leisurely pace: "Bezoar is a stone taken out from the stomach of a goat. It has a strong detoxification effect. When someone is acutely poisoned, stuffing a bezoar into his throat will

Received miraculous results. Aconitum scapulae and Aconitum wolfsbane are the same plant, also collectively known as Aconitum. The whole plant is poisonous, and the root nodules are the most toxic. However, the treated Aconitum has wonderful uses in many magic potions.

"

After the small interlude, the Potions class continued. Owen and Blaise worked together to brew a simple magic potion to treat boils.

Fighting spirit ignited in Harry's eyes, and he looked at Professor Snape firmly and sincerely: "I understand, Professor! I'm sorry, I won't let you down again in the future."

Harry was assigned to work with Crabbe by Snape. Although his companion was clumsy and holding him back, he still hurriedly finished brewing the potion. Snape walked around beside him, watching him work hard.

He came to the rescue, barely made a minor mistake, and then ran to cause trouble for the Gryffindor students.

Owen happily used Braise's crucible, burning a bright flame in his own crucible. Like a bonfire, it made the surrounding area warm and warm, and became a medium-sized light source in the classroom.

He was mocked a few times by Snape.

If Neville hadn't boiled the boil-curing potion into a boil-causing potion and burned out the crucible in the process, causing the potion to spurt out all over the classroom, this class would have been so peaceful forever.

After walking out of the Potions classroom, Owen stretched his arms and said with emotion: "What a peaceful day."
